The town
Fort Salonga is a quiet hamlet on Long Island's North Shore, split between the Towns of Huntington and Smithtown, with about 9,600 residents. It's more suburban/residential than a walkable village center — no dense downtown strip, but it borders Northport and Huntington Villages nearby for that.
